PREFACE

The 2012 Humanitarian Work Plan (HWP) Final Monitoring Report concludes the 2012 HWP cycle during which $ 578 million – or 56 percent – of the total 2012 humanitarian appeal of $ 1.1 billion was mobilized to respond to the needs of 4.4 million people throughout Sudan.

The final report outlines the achievements of each sector against the stated objectives during the course of 2012 as well as the challenges faced. Despite several challenges, humanitarian actors recorded significant achievements during the year. Out of 12 sectors, two sectors reported of having achieved their sector objectives in full, seven for most part, and three partially.

This report is the product of a thorough analysis and consultation process of a broad range of partners (national and international organizations and agencies, national NGOs, various government authorities, including HAC and line ministries) in the field as well as in Khartoum.

We would like to thank everybody who was involved in compiling this document and also take this opportunity to acknowledge the efforts of humanitarian donors for their willingness to provide funds throughout 2012 and at the same time ask their continued commitment toward humanitarian assistance in Sudan in 2013.

SITUATION OVERVIEWIn Darfur, approximately 3.5 million people currently receive food aid,including some 1.4 million in camps.

Some 56,000 people remain displaced mostly in Agok and South Sudan. Of 105,000 who �ed in may 2011, some 35,000 returned quickly to areas south of the Bahr Al Arab/Kiir river, and 14,000 others returned to areas north of the river.

According to Government and UNHCR sources, there are between 220,000 and 350,000 people of South Sudanese origin still in Sudan.UNHCR and the Government of Sudan have registered 109,000 peoplefor voluntary return.

There are some 142,000 refugees in Sudan originating from othercountries in the region.

In Government-controlled areas in South Kordofan and Blue Nile, HAC estimates 207, 000 and 68,000 people displaced or severely affected by con�ict respectively. In SPLM-N areas, estimates from various sources indicate that there are some 350, 000 and 70, 000 people displaced or severely affected in South Kordofan and Blue Nile respectively. The UN has no presence in SPLM-N areas and has not been able to independently verify these �gures. UNHCR reports that a total of 204,000 refugees have �ed to Ethiopia and South Sudan.

INTRODUCTION

This is the fourth and final quarterly report on sector activities under the 2012 UN and Partners Work Plan for Sudan. This provides a summary of key achievements and challenges for each of the twelve sectors in the Work Plan, including tables setting out final progress against objectives and indicators. The third quarter monitoring report was included in the 2013 Work Plan, which also includes analysis on changes in context throughout 2012. As such, those who require further detail on recent developments impacting the humanitarian environment in Sudan as well as final figures on funding should read this report alongside the 2012 Work Plan and more recent updates available from the OCHA Sudan website.

BASIC INFRASTRUCTURE

Sector Objectives

1. Ensure access to at risk populations (women, men, youth and children) by repairing, rehabilitating and constructing transportation networks (roads, airstrips, bridges and river transport).

2. Support communities and local authorities in build-ing settlements, developing their capacity and reducing aid dependency through settlement infrastructure proj-ects that target the most vulnerable populations (girls, boys, men and women).

Assessment of performances against objectives in 2012In 2012, sector partners rehabilitated about 7.5 km of roads and 15 crossing points. Local labour was employed in many of these projects and as a result the target for the number of people employed through cash for work schemes was exceeded. The rehabilitation of markets and environmentally friendly shelters progressed as planned, with sector partners rehabilitating two markets and four environmentally- sensitive community centres. A heavy and early rainy season meant that the start to a number of projects was delayed. However, other activities such as training, workshops and meetings with local people were able to take place during the rainy season. Sector partners conducted infrastructure workshops with local communities and facilitated the selection of community comwmittees.

Key achievements in 2012In 2012, sector partners achieved the following:• 7.5 km of access road was improved in Darfur. • 436 people from local communities employed through

Cash for Work (CfW) schemes. • Construction of two local markets and four environmen-

tally-sensitive community centres in Darfur. • Rehabilitation of 15 crossing points in Darfur, Blue Nile

and South Kordofan.

Key challenges in 2012• The rainy season in 2012 was particularly heavy and started

early, causing flooding in many localities of Darfur. This made access to project sites difficult and also affected the transportation of materials and staff.

• Another sector specific challenge was the unavailability of local construction materials; it is always an issue to find suitable environmentally friendly infrastructure materials, especially in Darfur and the border areas.

• All sector projects were implemented in areas with secu-rity concerns, often delaying implementation.

• The current economic situation in Sudan, the rate of infla-tion and the rate of exchange (USD) has led to increased construction costs for all infrastructure activities.

• The disbursement of CHF allocations was delayed until April. With the early rainy season, this reduced the window for project implementation.

COORDINATION AND COMMON SERVICES

Sector Objectives

1. Improve the overall operating environment for humanitarian action through coordination, resource mobilisation and advocacy.

2. Improve the efficiency of humanitarian programmes by providing common services (security information and advisory, access to pooled funds, beneficiary registration and verification, mapping and camp coordination).

3. Build and strengthen capacity of national and inter-national actors to respond effectively and efficiently to existing and unforeseen humanitarian needss.

Assessment of performances against objectives in 2012Overall, the Coordination and Common Services sector performed well, both at federal level ( Khartoum) as well as state level ( Darfur, South Kordofan), meeting the identi-fied objectives. The quarterly High Level Committee, which functioned as the primary forum for dialogue between the Government and the expanded humanitarian community until mid-2011, was replaced at the end of 2012 by the monthly UN and HAC Coordination meeting (including the INGO Steering Committee as an observer). At the end of 2012 and coinciding with the production of the 2013 Humanitarian Work Plan, two new sectors were added to the coordination structure. The first of these is the Governance, Infrastructure and Economic Recovery sector (GIER), which is led by UNDP and absorbs the former Basic Infrastructure Sector. The GIER Sector responds to the need to help communities to increase their capacity to integrate returnees and to become more economically viable. The second new sector for 2013 is the Logistics and Emergency Telecommunications sector (LET), which is led by WFP and splits out some activities from the Coordination and Common Services Sector, meeting the increasing demand for common logistics services. The sector contributed to the further development of common services to improve the efficiency of the humanitarian operation, meeting its targets regarding air transport services, camp management and coor-dination, registration and verification of IDPs, and the provi-sion of security services in Sudan.

Key achievements in 2012The Coordination and Common Services Sector identified and coordinated funding requirements for the 2012 Work

Plan, totalling $1.06bn of which $593m, or 56 per cent, were raised by the end of 2012. The sector oversaw the allocation, disbursement and expenditure of funding under the 2012 Work Plan, $76.8 m through the Common Humanitarian Fund (CHF), as well as $17.6 m through the Central Emergency Response Fund (CERF). Throughout the reporting period, sector partners continued to provide camp coordination and management support to eight camps in North and West Darfur that host almost 210,000 IDPs and to increase access to basic services for this population. Partners continued to build the capacity of national actors, including through the provision of training for national NGOs. The sector also played an active role in negotiating for humanitarian access to conflict-affected areas in South Kordofan and Blue Nile State. Finally, over 44,000 passengers and 229 tonnes of goods were transported by the United Nations Humanitarian Air Service (UNHAS), enabling the implementation of 2012 Work Plan activities. The sector provided training to national counterparts, including HAC, in several key areas of humanitarian action, including humanitar-ian principles, emergency response, and coordination.

Key challenges in 2012The High Level Committee, the primary forum for dialogue between the Government and the expanded humanitarian community until mid-2011, had been inactive since mid-2011, posing a challenge to effective coordination between the Government and humanitarian partners. This challenge was overcome by the formation of monthly UN and HAC Coor-dination meetings, including the INGO Steering Committee as an observer. Some overlap between the mandates of the different sectors, which had increased to 13 by the end of 2012, posed a coordination challenge requiring a more intensive dialogue between the concerned sectors.

The security situation in South Kordofan and Blue Nile states continued to remain unstable throughout 2012 due to ongoing armed clashes between the Sudanese Armed Forces (SAF) and the Sudan People’s Liberation Movement-North (SPLM-N). The humanitarian community deployed in these areas remained exposed to various threats including armed conflict, mines/ERW, criminality and harassment. In addition, the humanitarian community was faced with considerable access restrictions in South Kordofan and Blue Nile states as a result of the conflict in both areas. These challenges have adversely affected programme delivery in both states. Also, limited access to and the fragile security situation in Abyei and some parts of Darfur posed serious challenges for the humanitarian response in these regions. The limited capacity of national partners and reduced government funding available to line ministries at state level, compromised the viability of early recovery and durable solution initiatives to reduce aid dependency of IDPs and affected populations. Donor fatigue, stemming from the longstanding nature of the Sudanese humanitarian operation, as well as the protracted global economic downturn, lead to reduced funding. Combined, this affected the sectors’ ability to address humanitarian needs throughout Sudan.

EDUCATION

Sector Objectives

1. Increase access to basic education for the most disadvantaged and vulnerable pre-school and primary school-age children.

2. Improve quality of education and learning expe-rience for the most disadvantaged and vulnerable pre-school and basic education school-aged children (including IDPs, returnees and refugee children, nomads, esp. girls).

3. Increase access to quality non-formal / alternative life and livelihoods skills-based learning opportuni-ties for children, youth and adolescents at risk / out-of school, and adults.

4. Strengthen the capacity of local education stake-holders and service providers to create access to lifesav-ing quality formal and non-formal education.

Assessment of performances against objectives in 2012The objective of increasing access to basic education was mostly achieved. 136,167 children were enrolled including 120,037 (58,818 girls) children in grade 1 and 16,130 children (7,620 girls) in pre-schools. The target was not fully met because of a lack of accessibility to some conflict-affected localities, particularly in Blue Nile where partners did not receive permis-sion to operate until the fourth quarter of 2012.

The objective of providing quality education for out of school children, youths and adults was partially achieved. 48,313 chil-dren and youth, out of the target of 80,000, received alternative education including 906 youth who gained life and livelihood skills through vocational training. 2,410 adults (2,025 women) acquired basic literacy and numeracy skills against a target of 5,000. The reasons for this deviation includes late approval from the authorities to resume operations in Blue Nile, the closure of some partners’ programmes in east Sudan and a lack of funding for this particular intervention.

Key achievements in 2012916,685 children benefited from a school feeding program and a further 42,981 flood affected children were supported with materials including plastic sheets and school kits to enable them to continue learning.

A key sector achievement was improving the quality of the learning environment for 625,651 children (304,544 girls) through the provision of learning materials and furniture. Furthermore, 1,046 classrooms were constructed or rehabili-tated and school health has improved through the provision of water supplies, construction of latrines and hygiene train-ing and materials. In addition, 6,382 teachers and headmas-ters were provided with training on teaching methodologies, including on school health and child protection. In support of efforts to reduce the number of out of school children and youth, 47,407 children and youth have been provided with alternative education.

To strengthen the capacity of local education stakeholders and service providers, including government and communities, 281 Government officials (directors and supervisors), 421 employ-ees of local institutions and 1,478 care givers and community representatives were provided with relevant capacity building support. In addition, 2,204 PTA members were trained on different subjects including; school co-management, records keeping, networking and advocacy, child rights and protec-tion.

Key challenges in 2012Some of the factors that affected programme implementation were; • Heavy rains and floods in some parts of the country slowed

down implementation. • Due to high inflation, construction materials have

increased drastically, affecting the planned targets. • Inaccessibility to some project areas due to insecurity and

delays in signing technical agreements, particularly for partners working in Blue Nile State.

• In some projects, it has taken time to ensure adequate community contribution to some activities, affecting the timeframe for planned activities.

• Lack of accessibility in South Kordofan, Blue Nile and Red Sea states and transportation challenges in some parts of Darfur are the major challenges for implementation of the school feeding programme in Sudan.

• There is a lack of funding in support of alternative and non-formal education for adolescents and youth.

• Some partners closed their operations in the east of Sudan.

FOOD SECURITY AND LIVELIHOODS

Sector Objectives

1. Reduce acute food insecurity and save lives of vulnerable people;.

2. Protect, restore and improve household food and livelihoods security of vulnerable populations;

3. Restore and promote sustainable Natural Resource Management (NRM) by vulnerable communities and in vulnerable eco-systems;

4. Strengthen strategic coordination of interventions, capacity of partners, emergency preparedness and effec-tive response to FSL aspects of disasters and conflicts.

Assessment of performances against objectives in 2012WFP and other partners reached over 3 million people with 209,010 metric tonnes (MT) of food representing 90 per cent and 77 per cent of the respective planned targets. This helped to save lives and reduce acute food insecurity especially for newly displaced people in South Kordofan, Blue Nile and Darfur. Access to veterinary as well as agricultural inputs and services improved considerably during the reporting period, covering 98 per cent and 99.6 per cent of the planned targets, respectively. The target for capacity building was surpassed showing commitment of sector actors, especially international organizations, in developing the capacity of national institu-tions. Considerable efforts were also made in restoring and protecting the environment by planting trees and providing training in energy saving technologies. However, more atten-tion and resources have to be directed towards improving the level of delivery in this area.

Key achievements in 2012Building the capacity of partners through partnership with and training of Government line Ministries, NGOs and CBOs on assessments, cash transfer approach, Disaster Risk Reduction/Management and gender mainstreaming, was one of the key achievements of the sector. The other key achievements of the sector were realized in the areas of food assistance and the provision of veterinary as well as agricultural inputs and services.

Key challenges in 2012One major operational challenge that faced sector actors throughout 2012 was restricted access, in particular for interna-tional organizations and personnel, to some locations in South Kordofan, Blue Nile and Darfur states.

Food insecurity in some parts of the country in 2012 was driven by: i) poor harvests in 2011 as a result of poor rainfall and losses incurred from unattended farms due to the conflict-induced displacement of farmers; ii) high food and agricultural commodity prices exacerbated by a high inflation rate; iii) increase in fuel prices; and iv) depreciation of the Sudanese pound that reduced the purchasing power of vulnerable popu-lations. It is also worth noting that though the 2012 summer season was good, insecurity and the destruction of crops by floods and pests led to cereal deficits in some localities.

Though capacity building of national partners was one of the major achievements of the sector, their technical and logisti-cal capacities need further improvement in order to match the huge scale of required response. Lastly, despite achieving of over 80 per cent of sector targets, the funding level for liveli-hoods related activities was low (53 per cent), compared to that of the sector (69 per cent) as a whole.

HEALTH

Sector Objectives

1. To contribute towards better access for vulnerable populations to quality primary and secondary health care services.

2. To strengthen local capacity to predict, prepare for, respond to, mitigate and manage health risks that include communicable diseases and emergencies.

3. To contribute to the reduction of maternal and child morbidity and mortality focusing on safe mother-hood and child survival interventions.

Assessment of performances against objectives in 2012Primary Health Care including Maternal and Child HealthDespite population movements and a challenging security environment, the health sector, in close collaboration with state ministries of health have been able to provide basic primary health care, including maternal and child health services, to a considerable proportion of vulnerable people. Almost 32 per cent of primary health care facilities in Darfur are fully managed by NGOs, while a further 15 per cent are supported by them. The planned expansion of primary health services could not be achieved due to the withdrawal of support by some NGOs such as Norwegian Church Aid and the Saudi Red Crescent Authority. Currently, about 70-75 per cent of the population are covered with primary health services compared to the target of 80 per cent. Moreover, the percentage of health clinics provid-ing the basic package of health care has slightly dropped from 63 per cent to 61 per cent. Concerning maternal and child health, nearly 50 per cent of the health facilities are providing emergency obstetrical care due to interventions implemented by the sector partners.

Despite low immunization coverage during the first three quarters of the year in Darfur and border areas, accelerated campaigns later significantly helped to improve the vaccination coverage. South and North Darfur have reached more than 85 per cent of children under one year with Penta 3 vaccine, while some other states registered lower levels of coverage, such as Central Darfur (74 per cent), East Darfur (70 per cent), and South Kordofan (75 per cent). The measles coverage remained below 80 per cent in targeted states, compared to the national target of 95 per cent.

Emergency preparedness and responseThe sector strived to strengthen emergency preparedness capacity. This requires a substantial long-term investment and a comprehensive multi-sectoral approach. The focus remained on readiness measures and response framework. A number of outbreaks were reported in Sudan during the year, includ-ing diphtheria, measles, and yellow fever. Given the contin-ued efforts to pre-position drugs and medical supplies and train health personnel to detect and report epidemic prone diseases. All disease outbreaks were reported and a response initiated within 72 hours, except for yellow fever. The locality surveillance system has been strengthened to timely detect and report epidemic prone diseases. The yellow fever outbreak affected 840 people and led to 171 deaths in Darfur. The response was challenged by the unavail-ability of vaccines in-country and by the remoteness of the affected population. However, mass immunization campaigns supported by the CHF, donors, NGOs and ministries of health successfully controlled further spread of the disease.

Key achievements in 2012• Strengthened health sector coordination mechanisms,

including regular meetings, at federal and state level under the leadership of of ministries of health, with the active participation of HAC, national and international health partners.

• Assessing and monitoring the availability of health resources; infrastructure, health personnel and services on a quarterly basis using the Health Resources Availability Mapping System (HeRAMS) to identify needs and gaps then sharing this with health partners to address the gaps identified.

• Timely development of health sector objectives, strate-gies, priorities, indicators and sector response plan for HWP 2013 based on a consultative process involving ministries of health, and health partners. Four consulta-tive workshops were held in which more than 150 people from stakeholders participated and provided their inputs.

• Essential drugs and medical supplies were pre-positioned by sector partners at locality level in targeted high risk areas for floods and disease outbreaks such as meningo-coccal meningitis and acute watery diarrhea.

• Coordinated response to emergencies, notably the response to a yellow fever outbreak in Darfur whereby ministries of health, donors, UN organizations and NGOs contributed to contain the outbreak effectively with around 5 million people vaccinated in across Darfur.

• WHO, UNICEF and UNFPA provided ministries of health and NGOs with medical kits and supplies to ensure continuous functioning of health facilities serving the target vulnerable population.

• The sector continued to build the capacity of health part-ners, identified their training needs, ensured health staff were adequately trained on technical standards and proto-cols for delivery of health services. Moreover, 25 national NGOs were provided training on project management in emergencies and proposal writing.

Key challenges in 2012• High attrition of staff and the withdrawal of interna-

tional NGOs have created critical gaps regarding access to health services by vulnerable populations. This is

f

compounded by the limited capacity of national NGOs to run facilities handed over to them.

• The fluid security situation in some areas of Darfur, Blue Nile and South Kordofan, lead to temporary or prolonged inaccessibility with regards to the provision of essential health services to vulnerable populations.

• Poor road conditions pose a physical access barrier in some areas, especially during the rainy season.

MINE ACTION

Sector Objectives

1. To facilitate free and safe movement for humani-tarian operations through clearance of landmines and explosive remnants of war (ERW)..

2. To reduce the risk of injury from landmines and ERW and to facilitate the reintegration of victims through targeted mine risk education (MRE) and victim assistance interventions.

3. To strengthen and support the management and operational capacities of the national authorities and implementing partners to enable them to address the socio-economic impact of landmines and ERW contami-nation in Sudan.

Assessment of performances against objectives in 2012The Mine Action Sector was able to meet most of its objectives in the 2012 Humanitarian Work Plan despite several challenges that were faced throughout the year. For example, the National Demining Units and the Mines Advisory Group released over 700,000 square meters of land previously contaminated with landmines and ERW in the east of Sudan and The Develop-ment Initiative released over 100,000 square meters in Darfur. As a result, humanitarian partners, local communities, refugees and IDPs were able to move more safely and plans for socio-economic development in the region could begin implemen-tation.

Furthermore, mine risk education (MRE) projects implemented by partners such as The Sudan Association for Combating Landmines (JASMAR), the Friends of Peace and Development Organization (FPDO), the Association for Aid and Relief (AAR) Japan, and Strengthening Protection and Community Empow-erment in South Kordofan (SIBRO) have reached close to 200,000 people throughout Sudan. Victim assistance projects implemented by national partners have helped at least 1,500 beneficiaries receive socio-economic reintegration, physical rehabilitation, and psych-social services. Finally, on-the-job training, and workshops have built strong management and operational capacities of national authorities and all mine action sector partners.

Each sector objective was successfully addressed through projects funded by the CHF and by bilateral funding. Monitor-ing and evaluation of the projects has demonstrated that the objectives remained at the center of each mine action activity and the plans were well developed to address them.

Key achievements in 2012The key achievements of the Mine Action Sector included releasing over 800,000 square meters of land throughout Sudan, providing mine risk education to over 190,000 people including men, women, and children, and implementing victim assistance projects benefiting at least 1,500 people. During survey and clearance, teams were able to destroy 451 anti-personnel mines, 87 anti-tank mines, 8,334 small arms ammunition, and 2,852 unexploded ordnances. Furthermore, the majority of these projects were successfully implemented by national partners, which demonstrates the strengthened national capacity for mine action activities.

For example, AAR JAPAN, JASMAR, SIBRO, and FPDO MRE teams provided over 1,500 MRE sessions in 2012 and distrib-uted over 30,000 MRE materials to at-risk populations. Commu-nity volunteers were trained to act as an information resource for their respective communities and MRE teams were also able to collect data about possible mine/ERW threats in areas where there was limited access. MRE was also integrated into the national educational curriculum which enabled messages to reach school children in all affected areas. TWASOL (Hope City), FPDO, Landmine Victim Association, and Landmine Victim Organization provided victim assistance in the areas of physical rehabilitation, prosthesis and orthotics, socio-economic reintegration, and psych-social support. Interna-tional organizations such as UNMAS-S, MAG, and AAR Japan, continued to provide support and implemented projects with their national partners. Coordination meetings and monitor-ing and evaluation were planned strategically, which contrib-uted to a productive mine action programme in Sudan. In all activities, gender mainstreaming was given particular notice to contribute to a stronger delivery of results

Key challenges in 2012There were several key challenges that were strategically addressed to ensure that the objectives were met during 2012. The common challenges across all sectors included a lack of funding and access to areas in need of humanitarian action based on security reasons. The Mine Action Sector was no exception, but through dedicated efforts to strengthen cost-efficiency and raise bilateral funding, the sector was able to implement projects reaching hundreds of thousands of benefi-ciaries.

Due to recent conflict in South Kordofan and Blue Nile states, it was difficult to determine the current number of hazards. In addition, there were some delays in administrative procedures to obtain technical agreements and travel permits. As a result, operations of mine action non-governmental organizations had to delay their projects in certain states. The delays also prevented organizations from working during optimal seasons as the rainy season hinders many mine action activities.

Also, one of the most challenging aspects for MRE to local communities is to design materials that can accurately address the communication styles specific to each area. For example,

à

Beneficiaries/Target 724,287


in many areas, information is usually spread by word of mouth which is difficult where access for safe travel is limited. IDPs presented another unique challenge for MRE, as these groups are vulnerable to mine/ERW accidence. The MRE teams worked closely with all communities and created materials that successfully met the challenges that they faced.

Finally, the conflict in areas in South Kordofan and Blue Nile states prevented MRE teams from traveling to some at-risk populations. The security situation also made it difficult for some mine/ERW survivors, persons with disabilities and victim assistance personnel to travel and receive victim assistance support.

Achievement against objectives (Mine Action)

NON FOOD ITEMS AND EMERGENCY SHELTER

Sector Objectives

1. Provide needs-based and timely non-food items and emergency shelter to people affected by conflict and disaster, returnees, and other vulnerable popula-tions.

2. Facilitate coordination, timely information sharing, and capacity-building amongst all partners and stake-holders in the sector

3. Expand the provision of environmentally-friendly and locally acceptable emergency shelter, using region-ally produced and/or externally sourced materials.

Assessment of performances against objectives in 2012In 2012, the sector provided needs-based and timely non-food items and emergency shelter (NFI and ES) to people affected by conflict and disaster, returnees, and other vulnerable popu-lations, of whom 75 per cent were women and children. In 2012, a total of 217,550 households were provided with NFIs and ES (including 4,682 shelter beneficiaries). Even though there were some difficulties in providing NFI and ES assis-tance, due to access permissions, insecurity and flooding, the sector was able to provide support to 62 per cent of targeted people in 2012. Sector coordination through meetings led by the ES/NFI Project in Nyala, El Fasher and El Geneina and in Khartoum for the Rest of Sudan (RoS), allowed for a well-coordinated response to the emergency. Capacity building of national partners continued, with more NNGOs submitting an independent project sheet for CHF proposals. Sector partners increased the provision of environmentally friendly transitional shelters, but a lack of funding has prevented partners from meeting the planned targets.

Key achievements in 2012The sector served 217,550 households (approximately 1.3 million beneficiaries) in 2012. Some 190,590 households (90 per cent) were served from the NFI common pipeline and the RoS contingency stockpile. Partners who provided NFIs from their own stock included Tearfund, Catholic Relief Service (CRS), Help Age International (HAI), Concern, Norwegian Church Aid (NCA) and German Agro Action (GAA). Sector partners Plan Sudan, CRS, HAI, Great Family Organization (GFO), Sustain-able Action Group (SAG), AORD, and Intersos reported the provision of transitional shelters to 4,682households. Sector

partners ensure that gender has been mainstreamed in their NFI and ES programmes by ensuring that women are actively represented in capacity building initiatives, in shelter construc-tion, its location and gathering of local materials such as grass mats and wood from the fields. During NFI distributions, beneficiaries are selected according to priority needs and the specific needs of women are also taken into account.

Key challenges in 2012Many of our partners report that access is a major constraint to their operations. Insecurity and procedural travel permit delays hinder assessment and verification activities, which in turn delays provision of assistance. An embargo on UNHCR ESNFI Project activities in El Obeid in early 2012 meant that around one third of targeted beneficiaries throughout Darfur did not receive the expected rainy season replenishment items. In addition, reduction in donor funding for NFI Sector partners was a constraint to partners’ ability to conduct assess-ments and distributions, and resulted in not being able to provide assistance to all people in need of NFIs. In parts of South Kordofan, Blue Nile, and Abyei, where access was very limited due to on-going fighting, some partners were unable to meet targets.

NUTRITION

Sector Objectives

1. Contribute to improving access to an acceptable quality of prevention, care and treatment of acute malnu-trition for populations with critical nutrition situations or in conflict-affected areas.

2. Contribute to the strengthening of MoH and part-ners’ capacity to identify, prepare for, respond to and mitigate nutrition problems in emergencies.

3. Expansion of women’s and children’s access to evidence based high impact and feasible nutrition related services for populations in crisis by empowering communities and finding durable solutions.

Assessment of performances against objectives in 2012The national community-based management of acute malnu-trition (CMAM) programme has expanded, adding CMAM to an additional state (White Nile) during the year. At the end of 2012 there were a total 502 centers for treatment of severe acute malnutrition (SAM), 407 out-patient and 95 in-patient, and a total 258 supplementary feeding centers for treat-ment of moderate acute malnutrition (MAM). This is a total increase of 119 centers for treatment of SAM (107 out-patient and 12 in-patient) and ten for treatment of MAM. Much of the expansion has been in the non-Darfur states, including South Kordofan where an additional 19 centers were opened during 2012 by partners and in Blue Nile where an additional 11 fixed centers were opened during the year as well as four mobile outpatient therapeutic programmes (OTPs). The mobile OTPs cover five localities in Blue Nile and have been instrumental in improving access to services and so reducing defaulter rates (the proportion of patients who stop attending centers before treatment is complete) considerably. Best performance was seen in Darfur where there is the largest number of partners present, and poorer performance is seen in South Kordofan and Gedaref states (due to insecurity and weak supervision and monitoring respectively). In Blue Nile, defaulter rates fell from 50 per cent in January to 18 per cent in December.

Key achievements in 2012During 2012 a total of 102,009 children aged between six and 59 months were treated for severe acute malnutrition (SAM). This is a 40 per cent increase over the number treated in 2011. An additional 102,469 children have been treated for moderate acute malnutrition (MAM) in Darfur, Kassala, Red

Sea and South Kordofan. In Darfur, nearly 10,000 pregnant and lactating women were treated for MAM. Compared to 2011, the number of children treated in South Kordofan for SAM increased by 220 per cent and in Blue Nile by 55 per cent. Community based middle-upper arm circumference (MUAC) screening has increased in order to identify children with SAM early. A total of 816,000 children have been screened over the year, 712,158 of whom were in the conflict-affected states of Darfur and South Kordofan.

Three coverage assessments have been carried out over the year in North, South and West Darfur. A new survey methodol-ogy was trialed in Gedaref and Sennar states during 2012 to identify areas with the greatest need in terms of malnutrition and other indicators. The trial showed that malnutrition varies widely within states. Overall performance indicators are meet-ing SPHERE minimum standards, although there is variation between states.

A total of 2,461 health staff have been trained on CMAM during the year. This is in addition to on-the-job training and supportive supervision. A further 85 staff have been trained on surveillance-related topics including SMART surveys and managing the CMAM database.

Locally produced ready-to-use therapeutic food (RUTF) from the SAMIL factory started to be used on the CMAM program during 2012, with a total of 33,900 cartons procured from SAMIL over the year.

Key challenges in 2012Access to some areas (particularly in South Kordofan, Blue Nile and some areas of Darfur) both for provision of services and assessment of the nutritional situation has been restricted throughout the year. Access to routine CMAM data is now delivered through the National Nutrition Program of the Federal Ministry of Health. Deworming as part of child health days continues to not be permitted due to concerns over its safety and as yet no other program has taken the lead on re-starting mass deworming. Timely supply of therapeutic foods to some locations has been a challenge.

PROTECTION

Sector Objectives

1. Enhance Protection of civilians and promote the realization of their rights.

2. Support self-reliance of communities and empower individuals enabling them to achieve appropriate dura-ble solutions.

3. Enhance preparedness and strengthen the capacity of national actors to address humanitarian needs.

Assessment of performances against objectives in 2012In 2012 the Protection Sector focused on expanding part-nerships and enhancing national capacity to respond to the protection and assistance needs of the most vulnerable. The sector prioritised protection interventions, particularly for the most marginalized communities, through awareness-raising events, capacity-building exercises, support to community networks and building closer links with Government institu-tions.

Protection-focused emergency humanitarian interventions for new displacements, were not as strong in addressing the particular needs of women, children, the disabled and the elderly. In 2013 work will continue to support government and other humanitarian workers to better identify and address particular protection risks at the time of displacement.

The sector continued positive relationships with the Govern-ment. Notable successes included work with police Family and Child Protection Units, a Child Protection Unit within the Sudan Armed Forces (SAF), the nationwide government-endorsed campaign of Zero Tolerance for violence against women and the commitment of the Governments of Sudan and South Sudan to a framework agreement on the respect for the Four Freedoms for nationals of one state living in the territory of another.

In mid-2012, in coordination with the Government’s CVHW (Commission for Humanitarian and Voluntary Work) and IDP Centre, Protection led a multi-sector assessment of South Sudanese in open areas within Khartoum, to identify life-saving concerns. Also, a rapid needs assessment was coordinated in Zamzam camp, following floods in North Darfur.

Protection gaps remain significant and greater partnership at all levels is required. For 2013, priorities include further imple-mentation of the IDP Legal Framework, the ratification of the Kampala Convention, work with Government institutions on enhancing respect for the rule of law, with an emphasis on the risks of women, girls and boys and improved targeting of the most needy to maximize stretched resources.

Key achievements in 2012Overall• The Protection Sector, with GBV and Child Protection (CP)

Sub-Sectors, the Darfur Protection Cluster (DPC) includ-ing Darfur Return and Reintegration Working Groups (RRWGs), maintained structured coordination mecha-nisms at federal level, in nine States (four in Darfur, South and North Kordofan, Blue Nile, Kassala, Gedaref) and Abyei.

• Assistance was given for the Darfur Regional Assembly’s (DRA) implementation of the Doha Document for Peace in Darfur (DDPD), mainly through capacity building of VRRC staff and direct support to preliminary workshops for DJAM and Nyala Return Conference.

• Verification of all permanent returns of 91,544 IDPs and 17,654 people in refugee-like situation. The DPC intro-duced monitoring tools to standardise assessment in Darfur and provided data management training.

• Potential hot spots were identified and protection by presence realized in many field locations with inter-tribal tensions, despite restrictions. Government counter parts often assisted in the assessment and in protection / return-related activities.

• Enhancement of the protection environment for the approximately 350,000 persons of South Sudanese origin throughout Sudan (Government figure is 220,000), includ-ing support to documentation and registration processes to reduce the risk of statelessness.

Child Protection • Family Tracing and Reintegration (FTR) Working Groups

for children in South Sudan and Sudan. The programmes lead to the reunification of 481 children (327 boys and 154 girls) with their families.

• Inclusive reintegration programme supported 613 chil-dren (562 boys and 51 girls) previously associated with armed groups utilizing a community-based approach. 24 new children (all boys) were enrolled throughout 2012.

• 486 Justice for Children professionals trained on the Child Act (2010). 30 parliamentarians oriented on related imple-mentation problems and solutions.

• FCPUs in 12 states provided child friendly services for 12,971 boys and girls in contact with the law.

• 616 members of armed forces (193 SAF, 183 UNISFA 240 Popular Defence Forces (PDF)) trained on Child Rights monitoring, reporting and prevention of recruitment of children.

Gender-Based Violence (GBV) • Coordination of a nation-wide campaign to mark the 16

Days of Activism to Eliminate Violence Against Women. This included a programme of activities such as local TV and radio programmes, talk shows, round table discus-sions, plays and songs. The programme also included training on psychosocial support and referral pathways as

j

well as bringing providers and survivors together to have more survivor-centred interventions.

• A two-week intensive training course was provided to the Youth Peer Education Network on GBV, HIV and repro-ductive health. This was followed with training on social media, which two youth representatives from the five Darfur states, Blue Nile, and South Kordofan participated in.

Key challenges in 2012• In some cases, government human and financial resources

remain insufficient to respond efficiently. This is particu-larly true for the identification and response of protection needs in the new states of Central and Eastern Darfur.

• The security situation worsened in some parts of Darfur,

creating access limitations as well as new displacement and increased protection gaps. This, together with other movement restrictions hampered coordination and response, particularly in the second half of the year. Field missions and returnee verification missions decreased from 617 in 2011 to 482 in 2012, resulting in an incomplete picture of protection needs/risks, especially for remote communities.

• Government austerity measures had a significant impact. The turnover of government staff resulted in the suspen-sion of some protection activities implemented in collab-oration with government counterparts.

• A number of women’s centres in Darfur stopped function-ing as external funding finished.

REFUGEE MULTI SECTOR

Sector Objectives

1. Ensure effective protection for refugees and asylum seekers with particular attention to vulnerable groups.

2. Develop durable solutions including voluntary repa-triation where possible, self-reliance and resettlement, as well as strengthening self-reliance opportunities.

3. Refugees have access to basic needs and essential services.

Assessment of performances against objectives in 2012Despite the increasingly challenging protection environment for asylum-seekers and refugees in Sudan, substantial prog-ress towards sector objectives was made in 2012. In the east of Sudan, UNHCR continues to provide protection and assis-tance to approximately 88,000 refugees in nine refugee camps and urban environments. COR and UNHCR agreed to estab-lish a reception centre at a border crossing as a pilot scheme with the aim of identifying asylum seekers at the border and transferring them safely to Shagarab refugee camp. Prepara-tions for implementation started in 2012. Despite operational challenges, interventions aimed at improving the livelihoods situation of the protracted refugee caseload through the Tran-sitional Solutions Initiative (TSI) progressed well through the facilitation of access to enterprise development and microfi-nance. Livelihoods interventions led to increased self-reliance for targeted households.

In Khartoum, assistance was provided to vulnerable refugees in the form of legal and psycho-social counseling, one-time cash assistance for extremely vulnerable individuals (EVIs), and continued health referrals.

In Darfur, 34,000 refugees reside in camps, urban settings and border areas. Support for 8,415 refugees and asylum-seekers in the camps continued. With the support of UNHCR, COR completed 152 refugee status determination (RSD) cases for new asylum-seekers. Care and maintenance of the camp was undertaken and self-reliance was promoted. Discussion with authorities on key legal issues to improve the protection environment for refugees continued, but progress has been slow. These issues included the right to obtain work permits, restrictions on freedom of movement and improving access to asylum procedures outside the camps.

Key achievements in 2012Capacity building and advocacy efforts were enhanced, focus-ing on deportations. Three high-profile workshops on inter-national refugee law and the Sudanese Asylum Act, targeting judges, public prosecutors and police were conducted by COR and UNHCR in Khartoum, Dongola and Kassala. The decrease in numbers of detentions and deportations may be partially attributable to these training efforts. In the east of Sudan, the Government agreed to the consolidation of the Suki camps as well as the transfer of vulnerable refugees from these camps to Um Gargour; 300 refugees have already been transferred to Um Gargour.

Key achievements of the trafficking and smuggling project include promoting the draft Anti-Human Trafficking law and its discussion in parliament, awareness-raising workshops on smuggling and trafficking for authorities conducted by IOM/UNHCR, and construction of police stations and equipment support for police to improve security in Shagarab camp in the East.

In Darfur, COR and UNHCR collaborated closely in conduct-ing RSD in Geneina, El Fasher, Nyala, Mukjar and Um Shalaya, where the COR office receives asylum seekers. UNHCR supported refugees in Um Shalaya and Mukjar to achieve a greater level of self-reliance with a particular focus on persons with specific needs (PSNs). Training and support for farming was provided to refugees cultivating during the rainy season. The average water supply has improved to 15 litres per person per day in Um Shalaya camp, from the previous 13 litres per person per day.

Key challenges in 2012The protection environment for refugees remained very precarious in 2012. Refugees and asylum seekers in Khartoum continued to lack documentation due to a lack of access to asylum procedures since 2005. This lack of documentation, rigid restrictions on freedom of movement and problems obtaining work permits posed particular difficulties for refu-gees and asylum-seekers in Khartoum. The overall economic downturn in the country severely hit the already vulnerable refugee population and exposed them to further risk of abuses and exploitation.

In the east of Sudan, application of immigration law instead of the Asylum Act continues, preventing asylum-seekers from having access to the asylum system. Restrictions on freedom of movement and work permits also remain a challenge in the east. An alarming rise in trafficking and kidnapping was observed, particularly in the east, where the capacity of NGOs remains limited, especially in the area of micro-finance services and child protection; a partner for microfinance needed to be identified after the suspension of activities of one NGO. High inflation also affected staffing for implementing partners and the resulting high turnover rate and limited capacity of new staff was a major challenge in implementing projects.

In Darfur, a visible gap in primary education enrolment rates between girls (69%) and boys (91%) was observed, which requires further action to improve female participation. The primary obstacle for refugees in Darfur to pursue their liveli-hood strategies is the lack of access to sufficient agricultural land for cultivation.

3. Strengthen the capacity of national actors to effi-ciently and effectively manage the returns and reintegra-tion process.

Assessment of performances against objectives in 2012While an overarching policy framework for returns, early rein-tegration and durable solutions has not been developed by the sector, the sector has assisted in the drafting of bilateral agreements between the two countries on returns of South Sudanese and Sudanese to their countries of origin as well as a movement plan to assist the two governments. During the reporting period, the sector provided humanitarian assistance to stranded and vulnerable returnees, namely to South Suda-nese living in Kosti way and railway station in White Nile State, to those living in open areas across Khartoum and to Sudanese returnees in White Nile State. Assistance provided included water and sanitation, non-food items and shelter materi-als, medical referrals, food assistance and nutrition support, protection (including child protection and family tracing) as well as education and reintegration support. In addition, the sector supported over 18,000 people to return safely to South Sudan through organised returns movements. Throughout 2012, the sector worked closely with the Sudanese and South Sudanese governments on returns movements, and provided advice, guidance and policy support on undertaking voluntary operations in safety and dignity. Sector partners also worked through local authorities and NGOs to provide assistance and build capacity through training programmes and partnerships. Tracking and monitoring of returns continued throughout the reporting period to assist humanitarian partners and govern-ment authorities to respond to the needs of returnees en route or stranded.

Key achievements in 2012• IOM supported the transportation of over 18,000 South

Sudanese stranded in Kosti way and railway station and

in Khartoum open areas. Of these, nearly 16,000 were airlifted and the remaining travelled by train to various destinations including Juba, Wau and Aweil. All those travelling received medical support through IOM, UNHCR or FAR. Of those transported, 2,407 were extremely vulnerable individuals living in the open who were trans-ported by air.

• Emergency support mobilised for about 1,600 returnees stranded at various locations in South Kordofan State following fighting which broke out in Higlig at the end of March.

• Swift fundraising and transportation support for 12,000 returnees stranded at Kosti way-station following the declaration of the Governor of White Nile for all agencies and returnees there to leave by May 2012.

• Between January and June 2012, UNICEF, FAR, War Child Holland, WFP and other agencies provided humanitarian assistance to those stranded in Kosti way-station through the provision of clean water and sanitation, nutrition services (including therapeutic feeding), child friendly spaces, protection monitoring and family tracing, NFIs and shelter as well as food support.

• UNHCR, UNFPA, UNICEF and WHO (through partners including SRC) provided assistance to those stranded across the 40 sites in Khartoum. This included water and sanitation support, screening of 5,155 children for malnutrition and subsequent treatment, distribution of NFIs, protection monitoring, distribution of hygiene and sanitary kits for women and access to healthcare through mobile clinics and referrals.

• Capacity building of government counterparts, national NGOs and community members on returns movements, protection monitoring, registration, emergency prepared-ness and response to malnutrition.

• Over 200,000 IDPS and returnees tracked across Sudan and 3,200 villages assessed in North and South Darfur.

Key challenges in 2012• Limited access to South Sudanese communities in Khar-

toum, Darfur and east Sudan affected humanitarian interventions. Continuing conflict in Blue Nile and South Kordofan restricted humanitarian access to displaced people in those areas.

• Continued uncertainty regarding the status and rights of South Sudanese in Sudan making fundraising, planning and interventions difficult. Additionally, as government authorities do not want to see the open areas becom-ing permanent settlements, there was difficult in getting permission to provide assistance to some of the sites, particularly to provide WASH support.

• Continued insecurity in the border areas rendered the key return routes impassable for South Sudanese wanting to return spontaneously. Fighting in Higlig, which broke out in late March, resulted in about 1,600 returnees travelling through the area becoming stranded and requiring emer-gency assistance.

• Difficulties in gathering data on returnees living in open areas as the population numbers changed quickly and often. Additionally, any attempt to gather information results in expectations being raised, possibly leading to more moving from their homes to the open areas in the hope of transportation support.

• Ongoing tensions between host communities and return-

ees not only of South Sudanese in open areas in Khar-toum but also of IDP returnees in Darfur who find their land is occupied by others when they return.

• As well as a lack of safe return routes, the cessation of barge and train movements and direct flights between Sudan and South Sudan was a challenge for the sector when preparing for organized returns movements.

• Lack of resources committed by the Governments of Sudan and South Sudan on assisted returns.

WATER, SANITATION AND HYGIENE

Sector Objectives

1. Sustain and expand access to safe water supply for under-served and vulnerable populations in areas affected by conflict, flood, drought and disease outbreaks, returnees and in rural areas.

2. Sustain and expand access to improved sanita-tion for under-served and vulnerable population in areas affected by conflict, flood, drought and disease outbreaks, returnees and in rural areas..

3. Reach out with hygiene education for under-served and vulnerable population in areas affected by conflict, flood, drought and disease outbreaks, returnees and in rural areas.

4. Support durable solutions that reduce aid depen-dency through capacity building of communities, local authorities, and implementing partners to sustain, expand, manage, and coordinate water, sanitation and hygiene services, and water resources to improve resil-ience to drought, floods and emergencies.

Assessment of performances against objectives in 2012The sector monitored 12 indicators to gauge progress of achieving its targets for the four major sector objectives. Overall the 2012 objectives for the WASH Sector have been partially achieved.

Sector partners were able to achieve or mostly achieve only two of the sector objectives: in water supply access and hygiene promotion objectives (92 per cent and 123 per cent achieved for water supply and hygiene promotion objectives respec-tively). In sanitation, vector control and solid waste manage-ment objectives have been achieved but that of access to improved sanitation through construction and rehabilitation of latrines was only partially (42 per cent) achieved.

WASH sector partners mostly achieved capacity building objectives targeting communities, while the WASH sector partner staff capacity building objective was partially achieved.

Key achievements in 2012• Sustained access to improved water supply for 2,984,717

IDPs, conflict and flood-affected communities through the operation, maintenance and rehabilitation of existing services.

• An additional 688,500 people have got access to an improved water supply through the construction of new facilities: 649 hand pumps, 34 mini water yards and 50 water yards.

• 26 communities in Sudan declared Open Defecation Free (ODF) status and 424,368 people were provided access to improved sanitation through the construction of new sanitation facilities and the rehabilitation of damaged sanitation facilities.

• 4,903,692 people received hygiene messages through household visits and hygiene campaigns.

• 2,463,861 people were reached with hygiene education messages, solid waste management activities and vector control measures.

Key challenges in 2012• Reduced funding: WASH sector partners’ received only

44 per cent of Work Plan requirements ($41.2 Million). • The sector had to respond to new displacements as a

result of conflict and floods in different parts of Sudan while at the same time continuing to support and main-tain essential WASH services for a large number of IDPs who have been in camps for a long time. Sustaining and maintaining essential WASH services for the old case load of IDPs is becoming increasingly challenging with reduced funding as operations such as running motorized water systems are very expensive.

• Reduced capacity following the creation of two more states in Darfur, resulted in the sharing or dividing of limited or reduced WASH human and financial resources, which affected the capacity to implement timely WASH responses. Sector capacity was also affected by the clos-ing of some partners’ operations at the beginning of the year who were instrumental in raising bilateral funding (e.g. Medair).

• Sporadic conflict in some areas of Darfur, South Kordofan, Blue Nile and Abyei has resulted in restriction of access, especially for international staff.

• The poor road network condition, exacerbated by flood-ing, negatively impacted on the timeliness of WASH responses.
